About this care
Welcome to Partou Druivelaartje! Our toddler day-care is located at Gijsbrechtgaarde 110 in the Zuidoost district of Apeldoorn. We provide small-scale care for up to 14 children aged 2 to 4 years. As a VVE (pre-school education) location, we guide every child in their development with activities tailored to age and interest.
Our focus is on creating a safe, familiar environment where children can make friends and explore the world at their own pace. Each child is assigned a personal mentor who is the first point of contact for parents and who closely follows the child’s progress. This mentor is always reachable through the Partou parent app, where the daily schedule and photos are also shared.
Our spacious garden invites outdoor play and nature exploration. We emphasise language and speech development, creative expression and social skills through activities such as story time, singing, arts and crafts, and role-play. Healthy snacks and drinks are provided, taking allergies and dietary requirements into account.
Drop-off and pick-up are done together: on arrival we love to hear how the morning at home was, and at pick-up we share how the day went. If there is no time for a chat, we are happy to schedule a separate moment. We look forward to meeting you!Read more
